Happy Birthday, Fleetie! I think Stu is just trying to tell all you citizen scientists and "real" scientists that he is not hanging around while the secrets of the universe are being delved. And, by the way, who would want anything other than the old b.b.? It's not about deserving; it's all a gift. Best Wishes from Austin!

Fleetie, from the way you talk about bunnies, no one would ever know that you hadn't spent your whole life with a lagomorph! I love the humor and creativity of your posts! 3 ornery rabbits send you foot-flips, 3 friendly rabbits send nose bumps! Happy Birthday!

Well I can honestly say my heart has been warmed by everyone's / everybun's wishes.

I am thinking maybe people should let us all know when it's their birthday, because we are a bit of a community here now, and it would be nice to be able to wish each other "Happy Birthday!". And send each other special birthday Disapprovals via the wonderful bunnies that Disapprove Of us here.

Fleetie, it’s very thoughtful of your to schedule your birthday for a Friday so we can send birthday felicitations all weekend long and Stu can have plenty of time to fetch a nice selection of mixed greens and tasty herbs for you.

Wishing you lots of virtual nose-bonks and bunny kisses, and a generally heckuva good time! Disapproval will resume on Monday, of course...

And I hope, Els, that the very recent passing of your wonderful Rexy guy, Bird, is somewhat alleviated by the knowledge of what a wonderful life you gave him. I just know he Approved Of you very much indeed, as do we all!

Apart from that, if he's Disapproving Of me from across The Bridge, then I am very grateful!
